Python package for creating encapsulated PostScript figures

PyX is a Python package for the creation of PostScript, PDF, and SVG files. It combines an abstraction of the PostScript drawing model with a TeX/LaTeX interface. Complex tasks like 2d and 3d plots in publication-ready quality are built out of these primitives. Features: - PostScript, PDF, and SVG output for device independent, freely scalable figures - seamless TeX/LaTeX integration - full access to PostScript features like paths, linestyles, fill patterns, transformations, clipping, bitmap inclusion, etc. - advanced geometric operations on paths like intersections, transformations, splitting, smoothing, etc. - sophisticated graph generation: modular design, pluggable axes, axes partitioning based on rational number arithmetics, flexible graph styles, etc.
